Resolution on Support for the Cleveland, Ohio, Native American Community

2000 Responsive Resolution

Resolved that this General Assembly urge the Planning Committee and the Board
of Trustees to consult and cooperate with the United Church of Christ's ongoing
efforts to support the Cleveland Native American community in their struggle
against the Cleveland Indians baseball team and the racism implicit in the use
of the symbols, names and mascots which Native American people find offensive.
